My First Numbers and Shapes Pack
Dorling Kindersley Ltd.
703 .160 DOR
This pack contains a wealth of interactive materials that will help encourage young children to learn about
numbers and shapes. Each element has been carefully designs to work together to give maximum stimulation
and fun.
You can use the different elements with the activity book to play games or complete activities, or play with them
on their own. You don’t have to stick closely to the activity book- use it as a springboard into a world of
exploration. There are hundreds of things that children see and experience every day that can be used to
reinforce the simple skills that we look at in this pack. And don’t forget, practice is the key to success.
FOAM NUMBERS AND SHAPES
Two sets of numbers from 0 to 9 and a section of basic shapes can be pressed out of the tough foam sheets.
Children will be able to pick up and feel the numbers and shapes and trace around them. Eventually they can use
the numbers to answer simple math questions. They can use the shapes to create their own pictures or to identify
shapes in real objects in the world around them. Note on 0: the figure 0 has been included so that it can be used
to create the number 10. The concept zero is a difficult one for very young children to grasp and is not really
something you need to tackle at this stage.
PICTURE/NUMBER CARDS
These cards are designated to be used both for the games suggested in the activity book and to support early
work with counting. You can start by asking children to count the objects that appear on each card. Encourage
children to point to each object as they count it, and make sure that they understand that the final number is the
name of the number set. Children will often accurately count objects up to, say, five, but when asked how many
objects there are in all will give a different answer, Once children have counted the objects on the card, you can
turn it over to reveal the number. Note: You will see that the numbers on the picture cards and the foam numbers
are not identical in form. The number four on the picture card is open, for example, while the foam four is closed.
This has been done deliberately to help children understand that numbers appear in different forms, and will help
them to recognize numbers in real-life contexts.
OTHER MATERIALS
The other press-out cards and shapes in the pack are intended to be used in conjunction with the activity book.
Look at the page-by-page notes that follow to find out how to use the press-outs.
PARENT ALERT
This sign appears on some pages in the activity book. It lets you know that there is a game or activity that your
child can play to reinforce what they have learned. The instructions for playing games are in the page-by-page
notes that follow.
